Solution Process

The recovery process is as follows:

• You will have to verify that it is, in fact, a failure or corruption within the AD database, and not a network-related problem or other problem.

• You will then have to perform a specific directory restore mode recovery, where you have to decide between an authoritative and a non-authoritative mode.

• Once the recovery is complete, you will need to verify whether the DC is replicating and functioning properly.
